About Me



I founded Tom Edwards Design in early 2015 with the goal of producing top-quality artwork for clients, regardless of the subject or genre. I've had the privilege of working with top sci-fi authors like G.J. Ogden, Scott Bartlett, James Rosone, Ken Lozito, Daniel Arenson, and Craig Martelle. These collaborations have honed my artistic skills and deepened my understanding of the genre, allowing me to create iconic covers that resonate with fans.

I am passionate about helping new authors bring their unique worlds to life. Guiding emerging voices through the creative process and watching their stories take flight is incredibly rewarding. Working directly with authors lets me understand their vision and translate it into captivating covers that resonate with readers. This collaborative process has enriched my creative journey and forged strong, lasting relationships with clients. My blend of artistic skill and genre-specific knowledge has made me a sought-after artist, contributing to many successful book projects.

If you're looking for a book cover artist with a passion for sci-fi and fantasy, let's collaborate to create a captivating cover that will enchant readers and perfectly encapsulate your story.

Author Testimonials

Hundreds of authors have trusted me with their vision, here are a few...

Peter Fuller - Author of the military science fiction series, Solar Warden

"I was referred to Tom Edwards by my editor. Some of her other clients work with Tom. I approached him and he was eager to help me with the cover for my latest novel. Tom is very professional–he has tremendous insight and is willing to listen to what I, as an author suggested throughout the development process. He is a delight to work with, and provided me with a cover that is exactly what I envisioned. I would recommend Tom Edwards to any author who wants a professional cover that will be sure to attract readers to their novels."

C. R. Hayes

"Writing a work of fiction was fun; however, publishing that work of fiction was not fun. Fortunately, one part of the uphill climb that was enjoyable was the cover creation process with Tom Edwards. Seeing what was once in my mind’s eye come to life in the physical world was one of the high points of my writing experience. Given the critical role the cover plays in the publishing process, I’m glad I found an expert. Tom has been very responsive to my detailed specifications. His communications are clear, succinct, and timely. His work is superb. I can’t imagine finding a better artist. I’ve already asked him to do the covers for the next two books I’ve already written."

Scott Bartlett

"I consider Tom Edwards' artwork central to selling my books. It's the first thing the reader sees - the first step he or she takes on the path to reading my work. An Edwards cover is instantly recognizable by its quality and style, yet Tom’s range is extensive, and he always succeeds in giving me exactly what I want: a cover that signals strongly to the readers of my genre, while differentiating my books within that genre. On top of that, Tom’s a professional and a truly nice guy. It’s my privilege to recommend him as a cover artist."

Steven Healt

"Working with Tom has been a pleasure. I gave him a basic description of what I was looking for in a cover, and in return I received several amazing rough drafts. Throughout the finalization process, his replies were timely and the quality of work was exactly what I was looking for. I would easily recommend Tom for your project. I hope to work with him again on future projects of my own."

Anthony James

"Tom Edwards has created the covers for my entire six-book Obsidian Fleet series. At first, I was concerned about the step-up in price from my usual covers, but in reality, you get what you pay for and a book cover is the first thing a reader sees. If the art doesn’t catch a potential reader’s eye, they’ll skip straight over to the next book on the webpage. Tom’s art is up there with the best, increasing the chance a reader will give my books more than a split-second glance and from there go on to make a purchase. Tom’s work is top-notch, he’s professional, responsive, and reliable. Highly recommended."

Ben Winter

"People say you shouldn’t judge a book by the cover, but that’s nonsense, literally everyone does. Therefore, finding the right cover artist is serious business. How can you be sure an artist will successfully satisfy both your desire as an author to see your labour of love visualised, and also make sure you have an eye-catching design for your audience. Tom walks that line brilliantly. From the first concept I knew I’d found the right person to bring my novel to life. He understood the brief completely, and seeing the elements appear on the cover has been one of the more satisfying parts of the publishing journey for me. Tom is not only an exceptionally talented artist, but a very professional and easy to work with person. I'm looking forward to working with him again"
